In this call, Finnish partners can apply for funding for R&D and innovation collaborations with partner(s) from Kenya. Each project consortium must include at least one enterprise from one of the Eureka member countries participating in the call and a research organization combined with a company from Kenya.

In the context of Eureka Globalstars, the national innovation funding agencies in Kenya, Austria, Belgium (Flanders), France, Finland, Germany, Portugal, South Africa and Spain have opened a call for collaborative projects with Kenyan partners. Call invites consortia to apply high quality R&D projects within all technology fields.
